Rambling Rubbisher

Joined Atlas Obscura in 2026

Hi, I'm the Rambling Rubbisher, people call me Rub for short. I like to travel while trying to make the world a better place. I write online "reviews" about publicly accessible garbage receptacles. Each review features a bicycle basket of litter which was plicykled from the bike paths and roads of wherever I have been rambling. What is plicykling? Started April 2014.
